and Alyssa are always trying to outdo each other.
When Alyssa got a small water bottle, Mike showed up with a four-litre jug.
When Mike started gardening, Alyssa started beekeeping.
Oh, come on.
They called a truce for their holiday and used Expedia Trip Planner to collaborate on all the details of their trip.
Once there, Mike still did more laps around the pool.
Whatever.
You were made to outdo your holidays.
We were made to help organize the competition.
Expedia made to travel.
Let me tell you about Lear Capital.
If you had to spend $1,
every second of every minute, of every hour, every day, month after month, it would take you, doing that,
a full 36,000 years to reach a trillion dollars.
Well, the good news is we're going to pay that back easily.
The U.S.
government is far more efficient at spending money than you are.
They're doing it every 100 days.
Yeah, yeah.

Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Well, hello, everybody.
Welcome to a Wednesday.
We've got a great program for you.
If you've ever felt alone,
you really won't
after I give you some of the updates from all around the world.
See if it doesn't sound exactly like you.
You're not just not alone here in America.
You're not alone in the entire world.
I'll explain in 60 seconds first.
We have slipped from our pedestal here, and I think we did it a long time ago.
Most of us just didn't notice but when we started aborting children in the womb
and saying that it was a fundamental American right,
you know, I think we might have gone in the wrong direction.
That's why the Ministry of Pre-Born is defending the life of babies and introducing an expecting mom to her unborn baby through free ultrasounds.
When they do that, pre-born doubles the chances that mom is going going to choose life.
They've rescued over 280,000 babies through love and compassion and free ultrasounds, and every day they rescue 200 more.
They've also offering assistance to the mom for up to two years after the baby is born so she doesn't feel alone.
They're helping change the world.
Would you like to help them?
If you can donate anything, it would be great.
$28
is the price of a free ultrasound.
So if you want to sponsor a free ultrasound, you could do one, you know, a donation $28 every month.
You could do one every month, maybe save 12 babies in the year.
$5,000 will sponsor Pre-Born's entire network for 24 hours, helping rescue 200 babies.
To donate, dial pound250, say the keyword baby, that's pound250, keyword baby, or donate securely at preborn.com/slash Beck.
That's pre-born.com/slash Beck.
Just want to give you a couple of
stories here.
European farmers are reshaping the political landscape across the Atlantic just months before the EU's parliamentary elections.
Now, they have their elections June 6th and June 9th.
We have ours in November.
There are more democratically elected politicians this year than any other year in human history.
And so everybody's playing games.
And that
goes for the European Union.
They're voting on new leadership in their parliamentary elections on June 6th and June 9th.
Two dozen EU countries are going to elect seven politicians to represent them
as
democratically elected politicians.
I'm sorry, not seven, 720.
They are going to be confronting things like floundering economies, potential war with Russia.
My gosh, global war, big.
And major demonstrations are happening all over the world.
Agricultural workers who are a little disillusioned with the EU,
they are...
mounting their tractors yet again.
In 2023, Dutch farmer protests generated global headlines.
More than 10,000 people fought aggressive emissions regulations.
The new rules threaten to shut down up to 3,000 farms.
The Dutch demonstration has also been followed by the same kind of farmer uprisings in Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Germany, France, Italy, Greece, Spain, and others.
In February, the European Commission tried to do some damage control.
They scrapped a bill aiming at having pesticides used and reining in agricultural emissions.
They only did that.
It was only a temporary pullback.
And I'm hoping the farmers overseas understand that it was only temporary and aren't, you know,
they don't back down.
I want to read a couple of things to you that they have said.
Here's one protester, farmer protester
from the BBC.
We are fed up that they won't let us do what we want in our fields.
They force us to plant what they want us to plant.
They force us to use the herbicide that they want.
And apart from that, we're being underpaid.
Protests have participated or persisted in recent weeks with demonstrators dumping manure in the streets, spraying it at police.
The New York Times said in a recent interview with the largest farmers union in France, it's the end of the world versus the end of the month.
There's no point in talking about farm practices that help save the environment if farmers cannot make a living.
Ecology without economy makes no sense.
Does that sound like something you agree with?
This is just an illustration of the confrontation between the arrogant elites and the people, the urban globalists and farmers.
Does that sound like something you hear in America?
Now let me go to another story.
Protests over carbon price hikes stopped traffic up in Canada.
Anger over the increase to the federal carbon price led to protests across the country Monday, including several that stalled traffic on the Trans-Canadia Highway.
Man, even the highway in Canada has gone trans.
Ottawa's planned $15 per ton increase in the federal consumer carbon price came into effect on Monday, bringing a liter of gasoline up 3.3 cents per liter on average.
We need to, one of the protesters said, we need to unify our country around an optimistic vision and axe the tax, build homes and fix the budget and stop crime.
Does that sound like something you might be saying in America?
I think we have a lot of frustrated, disillusioned, disheartened, disenfranchised Canadians.
A majority of Canadians, they feel like they have no voice anymore.
Does that sound like America?
Gas is coming up, everything's coming up, and we just can't afford it.
I know people who are losing their homes.
Could you hear that voice in America?
See, this is what's happening all over the world.
I want us all to succeed.
It's not good what's going on.
Our industries are being destroyed.
Our communities are being destroyed.
And it's hurting our families.
Another person from the Canadian protest that happened on Monday.
See,
here is the real story of what's happening.
This is not about Biden and Trump.
It's about the elites
against
the regular people all over the Western world.
That's why they hate Donald Trump so much, because he's not part of that club.
He doesn't want to be part of that club.
That's why America First
has to be destroyed and dismantled and cannot be allowed to come back into office.
Anybody who has that America First idea, because that's in direct opposition to what is planned planned for America.
And by the way, the SEC is going to regulate the future of farmer now, farmers, here in America.
Now, let me ask you, what does the Securities and Exchange Commission do, Stu?
What is their main job at the SEC?
I mean, they're overseeing securities, right?
They're making sure, right?
Right.
You're shaking your head, no.
No, no, no, that's right.
Securities.
You'd think.
So they oversee the banking and
securities market.
And yep, and they make it very difficult for anyone who has cryptocurrency to survive.
That's their main goal, but they have a secondary one about securities.
So, what do they have to do with farming?
I don't know.
I don't know what they have to do with farming.
So, the SEC has just published a 900-page rule.
Not a law.
Laws are passed by Congress.
A 900-page rule that requires now extensive disclosures on carbon dioxide emissions and other theoretical climate risks.
I'm trying again the SEC.
This includes admissions directly generated by a company known as Scope 1.
Have you ever been scoped?
No.
You're about to be.
Emissions directly generated by a company known as scope one, and then indirect emissions produced because of purchasing energy known as scope two.
Now, as bad as that sounds, there is a scope three that they've pulled back for now.
And that is emissions not directly attributed to a company, but are part of your value chain.
Okay, so how much energy am I using?
Scope one.
What is my carbon footprint on my product, everybody who's buying my product and using my product?
And then scope two.
That's scope two.
And then scope three
is
what is everybody in my value chain, anybody who makes a single part, does anything, buys anything from me, what is their carbon footprint?
And you have to figure that out, according to the SEC, in a 900-page rule.
You have to figure that out every year and report back.
I assume the reason there's not a scope three is electric cars look terrible under the measure of scope three when you look down the entire process of making the car.
No.
No?
I figured that's why they eliminated it.
No, they eliminated it because there was some pushback.
And so they're like, well, they're like the EU.
Oh,
well, no, no, no, we're not going to do that.
They're just pulling it back for now.
For now.
However,
I don't know.
I think maybe some of the pushback may have come from the electric car companies.
Maybe.
Maybe.
So this is a massive expansion of regulatory power.
And what are they doing?
Well, they're pressuring companies to get on board with ESG.
Okay?
You got to do this.
Now, the SEC
is supposed to regulate financial markets.
Hmm.
Now
the Congressional Western Caucus, which is 100 representatives dedicated to preserving the rural and Western way of life, they are opposing this climate disclosure
rule because it's going to trickle down to the rural communities and the farmers and just shut everything down.
You can't
do this.
You will shut all businesses down.
Who's got the money to be able to figure out
what their business is costing in a carbon footprint?
And of course, you're just going to probably what, pay a company that says they can do it, right?
It's going to prop up a whole new industry of people who are going to be able to come in and they're going to be counted as new green jobs created by the White House.
And they'll come in and they'll say, ah,
eight, whatever, you know what they're calling with some measure,
and we'll act like we've made a greener planet when in reality we've just redistributed wealth to people who agree with the president.
Correct.
Correct.
So
those people who are protesting in the streets of Europe, those people who are protesting in the streets of Canada are already seeing these kinds of things things in their own government.
This is not the Democrats.
This is global elites that are doing this.
And we better wake up to that.
The Democrats have been completely captured by the global elites.
They're captured by Marxists on one side, but the Marxists are the useful idiots.
They don't understand who they're in bed with.
They're in bed bed with the giant corporations and everybody else that is going to impoverish the average person.
How do they do that?
Well,
it's easy.
They impoverish the average person by doing things like in California, a $20
minimum wage.
For fast food.
Do you know how much fast food is going for now in California?
Let me just play one piece and then we'll come back to it.
Here we have Californians telling the truth about fast food and the $20 minimum wage.
Cut one.
But many franchise owners like Jessica Diambra, who runs 11 McDonald's around LA, say the law puts an unfair strain on their businesses already operating on slim margins.
Do you feel targeted that it's specifically for fast food?
Yes.
And I think people just don't realize that.
They see this big McDonald brand and just think, oh, they've got all the money in the world.
And it's just, that's not at all how it is.
McDonald's, Chipotle, and Starbucks already saying they plan to raise prices to offset the rising labor costs.
Pizza Hut preemptively laid off 1,200 delivery drivers like Michael O'Heda.
I was very frustrated.
A lot of us got our jobs taken from us.
He was let go after eight years.
What's the point of the raise if you don't have a job anymore?
Amen.
Amen.
Hopefully this translates to the average American.
Hopefully the average American sees what's going on.
The SEC regulating companies out of business.
The SEC regulating your small town out of business.
The regulations on farmers going to stop farms from being able to produce food.
Restaurants going out of business people losing their jobs because of a federally mandated crazy idea
Common sense has got to play a role this November.
It has got to play a role or we will get everything we deserve
If your food could I mean sorry if your dog could talk if your food could talk that would be really scary Don't eat me that would be weird but uh anyway maybe your dog would talk about squirrels I don't know how evil the mailman is you know maybe he'd want to apologize for that embarrassing incident with your leg or
maybe he says something like hey what's with the kibble food okay day in day out it's kibble kibble kibble what's the dog gotta do here to get something decent to eat yeah your dog might say that mine wouldn't thanks to rough greens.

Tonight on my Wednesday night special on Blaze TV, nobody's laughing at preppers anymore.
In fact, it's now gone mainstream.
Even the media is starting to notice.
What people used to make fun of or considered fringe is now being normalized.
Why?
Because people all over the world are witnessing in real time the assault from their own governments on the basic needs to sustain human life.
Food production is being changed.
Water is being fought over.
Energy is being flipped completely upside down.
The threat of World War III has never been closer.
Western governments appear as if they actually want war, and it's all happening at the same time and involving the same people.
Tonight, I'm going to show you how unprepared the government really is for the next major disaster.
You cannot afford to rely on anyone to come and save you, especially not the government.
I'm also going to show you step-by-step how you can get your family prepared for any kind of catastrophe.
May seem daunting at first, but we're going to go through every detail and it's actually pretty easy and done inexpensively if you do it in stages.
All you have to do is begin.
And I'll show you how tonight.
Don't miss the Wednesday night special tonight, 9 p.m.
Eastern on Blaze TV, 9:30 Eastern on my YouTube channel, youtube.com/slash Glenn Beck.
It's Prepping 101, the step-by-step guide to surviving global chaos.
Make sure you watch us tonight at 9:30.
Go ahead and say it.
Right after a brand new Stew Does America!
That's what people were looking for.
Wow.
Very exciting stuff.
Yeah.
What are you doing tonight?
We're going to go into
a little bit of the election and the race.
And
I think there's a sense of Joe Biden is so bad that nothing can happen that can possibly put him back in the White House.
And
I want to scare people a little bit into thinking, you know what?
The media has not even started to try to, for example, rehab this economy.
The New York Times did it today.
As we were planning for this monologue on the show, the New York Times released their podcast, which is like their flagship podcast called The Daily.
Their episode today was, actually, Joe Biden is a tax cutter.
You didn't realize it.
You didn't know this.
Actually, he's cutting taxes.
He's cutting them.
Sure, he says he wants to raise raise them all the time, and they acknowledge he does.
But he actually is cutting taxes.
And there's going to be a non-stop drumbeat of positive economic information.
Oh, yeah.
It's already affecting the polls.
Look, his polls suck, but they are already moving based on what the media has been doing on the economy over the past six months.
What is wrong with people?
Look at the people in the car driving next to you right now.
Just go, what is wrong with you?
Scream awkwardly as you're driving.
Awkwardly.
Yes, it's true, and it's going to,
they're not going to go down without a fight, boys and girls.
And we're going to go over how that's working so far on Studos America TV.
Yeah, perfect.
Okay.
So join us tonight, Stu Does America, right before
my Wednesday night special at 9 on Blaze TV.
Glenn Beck.
Oh, wow, that's me.
What a coincidence.
Let me tell you about Lear Capital.
These are difficult times for the Republic.
We are printing money like it is is going out of style, which I think it is, actually.
We are sinking deeper and deeper in debt.
If nothing changes in a positive direction,
we won't be able to pay for anything.
By the end of the year, they now tell us that our interest alone will be more than Social Security and the Department of Defense.
Okay,
I think I heard that was going to come one day.
Well, surprise, here it is.

Okay, a few stories I want to discuss today.
A couple from Scotland and Canada and one from right here in America.
Let's start in Scotland.
Did you hear the latest about J.K.
Rowling?
She has been speaking out recently about the Scottish Hate Crime Act, a bill that has criminal consequences for saying anything deemed to be hateful.
To quote Rowling in a recent viral post on X, quote, The new legislation is wide open to abuse by activists who wish to silence those of us speaking out about the dangers of eliminating women's and girls' single-sex spaces, the grotesque unfairness of allowing males to compete in female sports, and the reality and
immutability of biological sex.
She then ended her post with a direct challenge to the Scottish government, saying,
If what I've written here qualifies as an offense under the terms of the new Act, I look forward to being arrested when I return to the birthplace of the Scottish Enlightenment.
She's challenging.
Now,
I guess lucky for Scotland that her tweets have been declared as not criminal by the Scottish police.
They're not going to go after her, really.
Well, she's responded and said,
okay, I'm probably the loudest voice on all of these things.
What happens to the little people?
And by the way, if you're a little person and you want to speak out, I'll retweet what you say.
Maybe they'll arrest me then.
She's going in to challenge this.
Now,
let's look back on something that I've already told you about in Canada.
Remember
Canadian Online Harms Act that could lead to life in prison for individuals found guilty of certain types of speech.
The bill's purpose is to increase punishments for what it deems, quote, the willful promotion of hatred.
But what is
willful promotion of hatred?
Well,
whatever those in control deem to be hateful.
Saying bless you when someone sneezes, raising your biological son to be a boy, anything that the powers that be don't agree with.
And it's happening all over the world, and America is now laying the groundwork for it to happen here.
Don't believe me?
According to the Seattle Times, Washington state lawmakers have passed a bill to create a hotline for hate crimes and bias incidences.
Washington will soon establish a non-emergency hotline to assist people who have, quote, been targeted by hate crimes and bias.
The bill defines bias as incidents, quote, that are hostile expressions of animus toward the following categories, actual or perceived race, color,
ethnicity, religion, ancestry, national order, gender, sexual orientation, gender expression or identity, or disability.
So
don't worry, there's no chance of anything backfiring here.
Not in a country full of microaggressions.
No, no, no.
Don't worry.
Americans would never take anything you say out of context, you know?
Because if they did, this would be a bloodbath.
Well, wait a minute.
He's done it again.
Amazing.
You could see how that one might backfire a little bit.
Yeah.
Although, I guess it's not really backfiring if that's the outcome you want.
Exactly right.
I mean, if you're if you're a Democrat and you use the word bloodbath, well,
I mean, if you're a Republican or named Trump, you should be immediately reported to the hotline for an act of verbal violence.
How about the firefighter that flags a thin red line flag at their firehouse?
Nobody would be offended by that, right?
I mean, it's not like they're the police.
People like firefighters.
Oh, no, wait.
I'm sorry.
New York has decided that the flag was too offensive to fly.
Apparently, only the pride flag is allowed by the LGBTQIAPK2S
Mr.
Q, Mist and I.
I.
There's the I.
And Infinity.
Did you put two in there?
Flag.
Yes, I did.
Only one two, though.
Should I have two twos or just one?
I mean, if you're two spirits, we should probably hit both sides of that spirit.
Okay, so two two.
And we could even throw a second or third two in there just to be safe.
Yeah, good idea.
Surely you'll have the First Amendment right to protest.
I mean, the hotline will never be against in you protesting, say,
I don't know, an abortion center.
Oh, dang it.
That's right.
Biden administration has already started the precedent for that one.
So I guess
if you're just protesting for a leftist cause,
you know, if you're doing that, then you're fine.
But if you're not part of the left, you're going to get reported.
Because being offended is the number one goal in this society and this bill gives people the outlet they've been searching for.
You'll probably be reported if you're a leftist, but nobody will do anything about it.
This bill is a direct violation of the First Amendment.
The bill, by the way, doesn't have any way for you, if you're innocent, to clear your name.
You're just falsely accused and that's it.
How soon will that list of people who have been accused of hate crimes and bias incidents be used against them to take away other basic human rights, like the right to bear arms, the right to actually open up a bank account?
This type of censorship is happening all over
the world,
and legal consequences are happening all over the world.
They're trying to strip your rights away, chunk by chunk, and pretty soon you won't have any left.
What J.K.
Rowling is experiencing is a window into what they're trying to do here.
But she's not backing down.
She kind of knows about
oppression.
She wrote in one of her Harry Potter novels, which I think is
pretty astute and should be applied here.
Dumbledore said,
have you any idea how much tyrants fear the people they oppress?
All of them realize that one day, amongst their many victims, there is sure to be one who rises against them and strikes back.
Harry Potter, J.K.
Rowling.
In case you haven't looked out the window lately and seen all the people running around with their hair on fire, our country is in kind of a weird and dangerous place right now.
And it's driving the price of goods and services through the roof.
That's a problem.
That's a problem.
But especially troublesome if you're trying to put away emergency food.
And that is the great part of my Patriot Supply.

Constitution Wealth is the patriot's choice in wealth management.
Do you avoid shopping with businesses that offend your values?
Yes.
You do.
Glenn does.
So
maybe
you have invested in companies that aren't so aligned with those same values?
What do you mean?
Like, what about if you, you know, because you can avoid buying something from Disney or Bud Light, but like, what about all your retirement savings?
Could be hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Right, I've got hundreds of thousands of dollars invested just in a group that I don't know where they stand.
Really?
What should I do?
Well, I don't know.
Maybe go to Constitution Wealth and give a consultation.
Constitution Wealth.
Yeah, see, what?
They believe in the Constitution or they wouldn't have the name in their name.
There you go.
That's exactly right.
Yeah.
And here's the thing:
when you have all this stuff going toward companies that are ESG, that's totally overwhelming your efforts in the other areas.
I got to tell you, that's overwhelming.
It is.
So go to Constitution Wealth.
They can unwind all that.
They can make sure you're not invested in those companies.
Where are they located?
You haven't given me an address.
Well, I'm not going to give you their.
That would be hard.
Why don't you go on the web?
That might be easier.

Yeah.

From the Babylon B today, in a devastating blow for the defense, state judge Juan Merkin has ordered Donald Trump to immediately cease noticing that the only people trying to put him in jail are Democrats.
Judge Merchant told Trump in court, quiet you.
Stop mentioning that everyone in the legal system who's trying to imprison you just so happens to be a member of the Democratic Party.
It's completely irrelevant.
All instances of Trump noticing this fact will be met with serious legal consequences in which will be administered by Democrats.
The expanded gag order comes on the heels of initial order prohibiting Trump from blowing raspberries at members of the press during hearings
from
the Babylon B today.
By the way, James Carville
has one who also, I think, was invented by the Babylon B.
Now, wait a minute.
Yeah, that's not right.
He said that the
Democratic Party's eroding numbers among young minority voters are horrifying.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's nailed that one.
Yeah.
He said, I've been very vocal about this.
It's horrifying.
Our numbers among younger voters, particularly younger blacks, younger Latinos, younger people of color.
particularly males.
We're just not shedding them.
They're leaving in droves.
Huh.
This is a fascinating realignment.
We are in the middle of it.
I know.
This is crazy.
This is probably what it was kind of like when the Democrats all of a sudden became the great defenders of
the minority.
African Americans when they cut down their nooses and replaced them with, hey, we swear we're on your side signs.
Yeah, okay.
And when they had Caesar Chavez out, you know, beating migrants.
Yeah.
And they were like, we're the friends of migrants.
We're the border.
Now we're the open border policy.
It is a fascinating alignment.
And I don't know that you could argue it's not,
it's got a future that's questionable for the right.
Yeah, because it's not necessarily going to the right.
And a lot of it is.
I mean, I think some of it's not.
But like when you look at younger voters, you look at voters who are of, let's say, lesser affluence, that all feels great.
Right?
Like it's great.
Hey, we're getting younger voters.
Hey, we're getting people, middle-class voters who are voting for us.
It's no longer those
people in the suburbs, those evil rich people in the suburbs.
Yeah, that feels great until you realize that those are the people that show up to polling stations every four years.
The younger voters are not as reliable.
Voters who are in lower middle class, not as reliable.
And it is, if you can keep your voters in the suburbs and add people.
in these other groups, that's fantastic.
If you trade them, it's not necessarily fantastic.
Right.
Right.
Well, that's what, you know, the moms for abortion say.
Moms for abortion?
Moms for abortion.
Is that a group?
I didn't remember.
What do they say?
They're the ones that are sick of their teenagers.
Oh.
And so they put together a little moms for abortion.
Hey, maybe I made a mistake.
You know.
Can you abort a kid in the 300th trim?
Well, moms for abortion are
good enough for that.
Yeah.
47% point spread is the lowest in at least 25 years.
Last year, 66% of black adults leaned or identified as Democrat, while 19% said they leaned or were Republican.
That's not good.
From 2020,
77% of black adults identified as Democrat and 11 identified as Republican.
So look how many they have lost.
When it comes to Hispanics, 47% of Hispanics call themselves Democrats, 35 identify as Republican, whereas in 2021, 2021, 57% of Hispanics identified as Democrats.
26%
said that they were Republican.
This is a real change, and I think can very well be a positive change.
You just can't also blow off your
old school voters.
You got to figure out a way to keep all of them, right?
Because the trade is just a trade, right?
They kind of have.
Haven't they?
They've kind of kept their voters.
The Democrats have kind of kept a lot of these people.
I mean, I think if it wasn't Joe Biden, I think they'd be like, okay, that's fine.
That's a good question.
Is this just Joe Biden is so bad?
That's why they're leaving.
I mean,
it could be that.
It could be that Trump is uniquely qualified to pull over voters from these groups.
I mean, he was incredibly popular.
When it comes to Democrats, I mean, when it comes to Hispanics and blacks, I think they're feeling the impact.
much more than the suburbanite, you know, mom for abortion.
Yep.
that's probably true.
Right.
And they're about to feel it, but they haven't felt it yet.
And they just think that
somehow or another, they've done this
magic on so many people that they just hate Donald Trump so much that they won't look at the state of the world and the economy and what's really going on.
It's really hard to know what these realignments mean with Trump around because Trump is so different.
It's hard to know if this is a long-lasting change.
Like we have yet to really see any other, any other Republican figure out how to run and win with this Trump profile other than Trump.
Nobody.
And Trump did it.
Let's remember one time.
One time.
I think, though, that there is something happening
within the Republican Party against the Republican Party's own leadership.
Oh, yeah.
I think that's real.
That is real.
And it is, you know, actually mean what you say and say what you mean.
The government is way too big.
The government is out of control.
I mean, a Ronald Reagan, you know, comes up to follow Donald Trump, and I think he wins.
I think he wins.
Now, finding that guy is, you know, difficult, right?
Very difficult.
And they have tried, obviously, to run Senate candidates, House candidates all across the country.
Some of them have won large, you know, in House candidate districts, especially in more bright red districts, where a Trump-based or Trumpian sort of conservative or Republican is able to win a primary and then go on to win in the district.
But like, we haven't seen a lot of success at statewide levels from these candidates.
I mean, governors, again,
J.D.
Vance, you might point to as a success.
There's been some, but again, J.D.
Vance underperformed other Republicans in that race.
You know, I like J.D., but like it's, it's the profile hasn't been successful without the unique characteristics of this one guy.
But let me give you this: Wisconsin voters yesterday approved two constitutional amendments to tighten election integrity,
and they voted against Zuckerbox for banning things like Zuckerbux.
That's tremendous.
That's in Wisconsin.
Yeah.
So there is election integrity issues are actually very popular.
Very popular.
Despite what the media says,
you know, you look at every single group.
I mean, driver's licenses to vote is one of the more popular items in our public discourse when you actually poll it.
It's just that the media makes it seem like it's racist all the time, but it's just them having a conversation with themselves on that.
You know, African Americans are like, what are you talking about?
I got a driver's license.
I can bring it to the polls with me.
No, they don't.
Really?
No, they don't have any ID.
They're blocked.
They're blocked.
It's like 1851,
you know, for African Americans at the voting school.
Yeah.
The Glenn Beck program.
Now, let's talk about American Giant and American quality.
Those words still mean something to a lot of us.
They mean something to you?
One of the reasons why Stu and I both love American Giant is they're a company that doesn't just think about what they can do, they do what they should do.
When you buy American Giant clothing, you are investing in American manufacturing and American workers.
And you're not just buying clothes.
You're investing in the process that can help save our country.
We need to get back to that American spirit of independence, of manufacturing.
American Giant is doing their part.
All of the clothing is 100% American.
The cotton, the milling, the cutting, the sewing, the dyeing, everything.
That comes with American quality.
You can buy cheaper, I'm sure, and you'll get cheaper quality.
Or you can just buy quality that will last for generations.
There is an American Giant in all of us.
We need to rediscover it.

It's a new day I tell you
Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment and enlightenment
This is the Glen Beck program
hello America welcome to the Glen Beck program.
Well,
Joe Biden has said, the Sourus campaign manager, Julie Chavez-Rodriguez, she said Biden is not in favor of closing the U.S.-Mexico border.
Now, the president recently has said he would shut down the border immediately if he could.
He doesn't know how.
The president doesn't talk about shutting down the border and is not advocating for shutting down the border.
What people want to see is order and humanity in our immigration system.
No, right now, we'd like you to shut the water off.
Stop talking about calling a plumber.
Shut the water off first.
I'm sorry.
That sounded like I was a little passionate about it because I'm absolutely not.
And meanwhile, Donald Trump said this will be the largest deportation of
our country's history.
Which one are you thinking might be best for security and the future of our country?
Well, I think, I know, I think Joe Biden, because, you know, he's completely clueless and wants to just, you know, he'll call a plumber.
He'll call a plumber if the Republicans will let him.
Okay, okay.
All right.
Well, let's talk also a little bit about federal spending.
You're never going to believe this, but we're spending more than we thought we would.
All that and more coming up in 60 seconds.
Picking a real estate agent out of the hat, it's kind of like picking a congressperson, you know,
at all.
I mean, even studying them, it's kind of like picking a name out of the hat, at least feels like it.
Maybe you roll the dice and get a halfway decent one, but chances reside somewhere between slim and none.
And that's unfortunate because buying and selling homes is one of the biggest decisions you'll ever make in your life.
Imagine getting ready to put your house on the market.
In walks a competent agent.
I mean, really competent.
Knows the market, knows the best practices, knows all the people he or she trusts to get your house in shape and keep the process rolling smoothly, and already has customers for your house.
That's somebody you can trust.
And we've built a business around that idea.
It's realestateagentsitrust.com.
That is
my company.
I decided to help you, this audience, for over a decade now, find the right real estate agent.
And through billions of dollars in sales, we have helped so many listeners.
We'll pair you up with that right agent, whether you're just moving across town or all the way across the country.
And we don't charge you a dime.
Real Estate Agents I Trust.
The name says it all.

So, Stu, you're never going to guess.
You're never going to guess.
Mike Johnson, who has been, oh, I don't know,
kind of a disappointment.
Mike Johnson, what happened to him, do you think?
I've heard from so many people.
He's really a good guy.
I mean, I think he's in a very difficult position, which is the same thing you could say about the last guy, which I'm.
And they got after that.
Well, but these two in particular, they've got a one-seat majority, or was it two right now, I guess?
It's very difficult to get anything done.
So
they are going to do what they do.
So I don't think he's been bought and sold.
I mean,
again, we can say that every time.
I mean, we have to understand the, we have to recognize the actual limitations of what they can accomplish here.
That means, of course, if you want to say you want to, like, for example, the spending thing, you want to shut the government down over that?
I think that's a totally viable thing.
I know I would like it.
They are calculating that it's not good for their politics, so they're not doing it.
That is the same calculation you'd get from probably two-thirds of that group
of that group.
Yeah, I mean,
that is where we are.
So So your question was whether he was disappointing.
To me, no.
It's exactly what I expected.
That's just low expectations.
Low expectations.
And this is why it was stupid
to throw McCarthy out in the first place.
Because you weren't going to get anybody who's going to come in here and be magic.
You weren't.
So it was kind of a wasteful exercise, in my view.
Okay, well, low expectations.
I think you're right on that.
Well, he's currently weighing how much foreign aid we can give and afford to give to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.
I think that number is actually closer to zero
than
the hundred trillion.
I was going to say like $10.
I mean,
we can't afford anything.
Everything that we have now, kids, we're putting on a credit card.
And just like your credit card, the interest rates are going up.
And so we've got to stop this.
The U.S.
government's budget deficit now has already hit $830 billion,
and there's seven more months left to go in the fiscal year.
And remember, it was, what was the conversation we had yesterday with Carol Roth?
It was based on, if things don't change, we're in a lot of trouble.
Yeah.
But see, things do change.
As you see here, they're changing in a way that we're spending more money.
It doesn't change that we can become more fiscally responsible.
It changes that we spend more and more and more and more.
We come up with more and more and more ideas
to figure out how to dump more money into a fireplace.
By the way,
we had an increase of revenues.
So in other words, of taxes.
We've had an increase of 7%.
And we're still $830 billion
in the hole this year.
We are spending now at the same kind of rate that we were spending during COVID.
That's a little insane.
You think?
A little, a little, a little.
And he's about to propose once again nationalized health care,
child care, nationalized
leave, family leave,
that government's going to pay for.
He's got multiple trillions of dollars of programs that he's outlining.
He outlined to the New York Times about what he's going to be spending.
And of course, he's going to get that paid for by the taxes on billionaires.
So that'll be all set.
Could Could be all set up.
Could we be this stuff?
Just listen.
Okay.
Billionaires don't pay income.
Do you know how Elon Musk?
You know how Elon Musk, how much he pays in income tax?
Zero.
Oh my God.
That's the problem.
We're going to fix that.
We're going to pay for all these programs.
We're going to raise the taxes on rich people.
No, you could raise it to 100%,
and Elon Musk will not pay a dime on income tax.
Joe Joe Biden's going to fix.
He's got to make sure he puts in a tax rate.
He has to pay.
No.
No.
Yeah.
He doesn't make
income.
Here's how Elon Musk does it.
He takes all of his income and he takes it in stock.
So it just sits there in stock.
Oh, well, he's got a solution for this.
You didn't know this?
No.
Remember how crazy it seemed when Elizabeth Warren proposed a wealth tax?
That would never be.
Oh, I know.
No one would ever in a mainstream Democratic Party go along with that.
Well, guess what's coming, boys and girls?
A 25%
annual wealth tax.
That cannot happen.
It cannot happen.
It cannot happen.
For a multitude of reasons.
I mean, mathematically, it just can't happen.
Also, it's unconstitutional.
But as you were pointing out, Glenn, and I think this was the end of your story.
I'm sorry I interrupted.
Well, I didn't even get to the middle of it.
Oh, go ahead.
No, I believe the end of your story is when you get these taxes that will figure out a way to tax Elon Musk, he won't live here anymore.
He will be in another country that will allow him to keep his money.
So the actual tax rate on him will be zero.
That's how this works with billionaires.
They just will leave.
This is happening with all of the billionaires.
They don't make income tax.
So how does Elon Musk,
how does he get paid?
He takes a loan out from his company and then he doesn't pay the loan back.
So he's got a loan
and you're not taxed on loans.
The point is, if you want to get the billionaires, you don't raise the rate of the income tax.
Because everybody who has lots and lots of money, they're not paying income tax.
Now, of course, they know this, right?
Yeah, they do.
They know this.
But what they also know is that people are jealous of billionaires.
And so they want, it is popular to say you're taxing billionaires and corporations.
So they say,
even though they're not going to, I don't think they will ever get a wealth tax through constitutionally.
Them saying it creates a public debate.
Yes.
Which puts Joe Biden on the side of saying, I want the billionaires' money.
They're mean.
And us on the side of saying, You can't just steal people's money and you should feel bad for billionaires.
At least this is how they're going to project this argument.
And so they want to be on the side that says billionaires are mean, not you should feel bad for billionaires.
And so they are going to use this.
Whether they're actually ever going to get this through is a whole nother story.
I know
they're bringing in billionaires into
the
subject at all.
They are.
Yeah, they are.
But I'm telling you, what they're saying they're going to do is a scam.
If you want to tax billionaires, okay,
but you can't do it through the income tax because I don't pay income tax.
Okay, that's the way it works.
They've had a hundred years to figure this out.
Ask France how this works.
People just leave.
They leave.
They leave.
And you're right.
Like they, I think, are trying to acknowledge, well, they'll get around the income tax if we just raise the income tax.
I mean, their income tax raising proposal just brings it back to where it was under Obama.
Correct.
39.6%.
But they are looking for a special billionaire tax.
And what they're calling a billionaire tax, of course, reaches a lot of people that aren't billionaires, shockingly.
And also goes after their wealth.
Can you imagine just the
like
you have an art collection?
Let's say you've gone out and you've bought tons of Hunter Biden art and you're just really rolling in the wealth of Hunter Biden art.
It's just like, oh, it's going from 20% to 30% every single year.
You know, that's how this works.
What they're going to try to do is tax you on the theoretical increase of value of that Hunter Biden art every year.
So you're going to have to go and figure out, well, that Hunter Biden art went up by X percent.
Now, some might point out, maybe the Hunter Biden art didn't go up at all.
Right.
But they're still going to tax you on the value of you having it hanging
in your living room.
forget about art you have your house
your house theoretically goes up 25
yeah you now have to pay 25 percent of your house's value
you have to pay
on that 25 percent and send it into the government have you looked at your zillow value i mean if you bought a house 10 or 12 years ago if you just go to your house today look at your zillow value pay your income tax on that it's going to feel you're going to feel like wait a minute that that can't possibly be
worth that much how are you going to do that if you sell your home right because you don't have the money necessarily to do that now they're going to say this is rich people they do have the money but as we've seen even with someone like donald trump who's one of the richest people in the world to come up with hundreds of millions of dollars is really difficult can you imagine already did you see the the biggest um
building in the bronx i don't even think it's finished right 93 stories supposed to be.
Walked away from it.
Walked away from it.
They can't pay, right?
They can't pay.
So the builders are just like, I can't pay.
So it's for you, the bank.
They've abandoned this building.
Right.
So who's going to end up owning everything?
The federal government and the banks.
Gee, that sounds an awful lot like the Great Reset.
It's just this, just, it cannot happen.
First of all, I mean, that's the way to lose your house.
And I just don't think Americans, you know,
I'd like to know.
Last hour, I told you about
the SEC.
And the SEC is now weaponizing themselves to just shut down businesses, small towns, you'll be devastated, devastated.
They just released a new climate disclosure rule that will impose unprecedented reporting requirements on job creators in the U.S.
Okay?
It's 900 pages long
and it's a 900-page rule.
It's not a law because the SEC can't make laws.
Who is going to stand up against the federal government finally and say
that's not a law?
I'm not enforcing that.
As the sheriff, as the police, or whatever, I'm not enforcing that.
In fact, I'm not going to let the FBI or the IRS come in and do this to my community because that's not been passed by Congress.
I am here to enforce the law, not little rules that a group of 10 of you came up with in Washington.
That's a rule.
That's not a law.
I wonder if that would stand.
More in just a second.
Here's a cold hard truth.
Our American values are under attack.
You know it, I know it.
Our financial system is frankly broken.
The economic outlook for this coming year alone is extremely uncertain.
That's why I'd like to remind you to protect your hard-earned savings with an asset you can trust, gold.

All righty, Sig Freak.
All right, let me
remind you first
that if you put down
money
one dollar for every second, for every minute, of every day,
of every week, of every month, of every year.
It would take you 36,000 years
to be able to build a trillion dollars.
Okay.
36,000 years.
Federal government has made a mistake.
Just last year,
they've made some improper payments.
Unfortunately, 14 agencies have reported that $236 billion
have been paid out and they shouldn't have been paid out and they don't know what to do.
Just so you know, $236 billion is about a third of a trillion,
just about, and that's only about
12,000 years
of $1
every minute.
12,000 years, and it is like, whoops.
I don't know what we,
where did I put that quarter of a trillion dollars?
I don't.
Hello?
He said a third and a quarter in there, but somewhere between 9,000 and 12,000-ish years.
That's a lot.
Yeah, that's a lot.
And that's just a mistake.
That's just a, oops, we paid it out by mistake.
Whoops.
9,000 years.
Whoops.
It's incredible.
By the way, Mitch McConnell is now joining Joe Biden, and we've got to cover the cost of the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
Well, I asked you yesterday, doesn't that bridge have insurance?
Oh,
yeah, it does.
It does.
You'd think so.
You would think so.
Okay, so.
So
why are we paying for the bridge then?
Well, the value of the bridge is $1.2 billion.
And so let's look at who owns some of the.
The international group of P ⁇ I clubs provided the ship's coverage, mutual insurance organization that is reinsured the bulk of the risk exceeding approximately $10 million per vessel with a total limit of $3.1 billion.
That's just on the ship.
Insured for maximum $3.1 billion.
Approximately 80 reinsurers, including more than 20 of the top 25 global insurers, are involved in the reinsurance process.
So this would be good news, right?
Like they've actually, they were covered and we shouldn't have to pay for it.
So TD Cowen, which is, you know, a,
I don't know what they are.
Let me see here real quick.
They
are an investment bank.
They say they're keeping a positive outlook on the insurance field because this is going to be able to be handled because it's spread out over all of these insurers.
So why is the federal government trying to take and pay for something that has already been paid for by insurers?
Why?
Why?
Why?
I mean, is this the part where you tell us why?
Nope.
I have no idea why.
Because I'm very interested in the answer to this.
Yes.
They say the impact on specific insurance companies will see moderate to significant losses but the overall effect on the industry is manageable
they highlighted companies like arch capital group everest group renaissance re
chubb having varied degrees but also aig the hartford travelers uh axa xl hanover re munich re swiss re
are also noted for their significant presence in the marine market.
This is going to happen to the marine market
and they're well covered and it's all spread out.
Why
is our government insisting that we pay for it?
Why?
They're just taking over
another job that the
capitalist market can and is doing?
Why?
Glenn Beck.
Alrighty, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.
Imagine every time your phone rings, you put it up to your ear and you have to think, I'm paying to use this thing and some of that money is going to leftist causes.
Not a pleasant thought, not a pleasant thought.

Much better, right?
Right?
Well, that's Patriot Mobile.

Welcome to the Glenbeck program.
There is a story out today, two stories I want to talk to you about.
One is 90% of all illegal immigrants in a secret program designed by Joe Biden's administration has flown to Florida and Texas.
90% of the illegal immigrants are flown to Texas or Florida.
Does that sound like targeting to anyone?
Also, there is the Texas
Sheriffs Association, which wrote a letter and met with Greg Abbott,
I think a couple of weeks ago.
And it wasn't really discussed by any members of the press, and I think it should be.
In it, the letter said, we request that our dangerous, chaotic Texas border emergency be officially declared a United States constitutional crisis and crimes against humanity.
We further request the United States government without delay assist
in securing the border.
One of the guys who is a main voice on this and has been a main voice in Texas for quite some time, he worked with the state legislature on the Texas original concealed handgun license law in the 1980s, and he was instrumental in the recent open carry law that was passed in 2012.
He's my sheriff, who, when I asked, what happens if the federal government just decides to start taking guns from people in our county?
He told me, well, I just have to deputize all of the adults in the county, and all my sheriff deputies need guns.
I love this guy.
It is
Sheriff Bill Wayborne.
from Tarrant County.
Hello, Sheriff.
How are you?
I'm great, Glenn, and it is so good to be with you, sir.
Thank you.
So tell me about this letter and this meeting.
Was this all of the Texas sheriffs in every county or most of them?
It was a large majority.
It wasn't every one of them.
We did it in a short time period.
We waited until after the primary because we wanted this to be an apolitical law enforcement statement, and we were gathered there with both Democratic and Republican sheriffs to say that we're standing behind what Governor Abbott's done and demanding that the federal government step in and do do their job.
And that was the essence of it.
And I think we had 50 or 60 sheriffs that showed up at the Capitol and stood with the governor.
So is the governor doing everything that he can?
Because the federal government's not going to do anything.
He has done everything that he can
absent starting to use force.
or deadly force.
And that's
the whole issue is that I think he's tried to do everything he could.
I have racked my brain, and if I could think of something else that he could do, I'd certainly pass it on to his staff.
But
I think that they bust out, you know, busing out to sanctuary cities got their attention.
I think it's finally gotten the attention of the United States as a whole, as I'm seeing in the polls these days, that it has become the number one issue.
And people really need to pay attention to it.
I have to tell you,
you know, New York has been complaining that we're sending to sanctuary cities.
I don't know how many bus loads we've did.
And the same with Chicago.
And we find out now that the Biden administration, which has a program of secretly flying illegal immigrants from Colombia and El Salvador and all over South America, giving them tickets to fly into America and then giving them basically a work pass.
And to find out that 90%
of all of those illegals are coming into a Texas airport or a Florida airport
seems like targeting.
That is absolutely what it does seem like and absolutely outrageous that they're doing that.
So can you give me any idea or give the rest of America any idea what this is causing here in Texas, how much Texas crime is
changing, how our cities are changing, what our budgets are like?
Well, I can tell you that here in Fort Worth, and in just a couple of weeks, I've been invited to testify before Congress on the impact of Tarrant County.
And, you know, some of the things that I'm going to share with them is that we're spending our jail right now.
I have about 200 illegal aliens charged with state jail or
felony offenses in the state of Texas, and including a quarter of them for sexual assault of children.
And that's costing us about $20,000 a day
just to keep those guys.
They should have never been here.
So that's one impact.
And then, you know, I'm just seeing a hot list from last month is that we were well over 500 opioid overdoses in Tarrant County just last month.
And, you know, when we see that range of people and the number of fentanyl deaths that we're seeing, it is it the drugs are being used as weapons against us.
We know that.
The cartel is very clever.
They don't care that they kill us.
And they're doing those type of things that are impacting us.
And, you know, some of these people that have ended up dead are not drug addicts.
They are one pill and dead.
You know, that silly college kid that wanted to stay up and do his homework, and somebody gave him an Adderall pill, and 10 minutes later, he's dead.
So I think it's had a tragic impact, and nobody's looking at that as
weaponizing these drugs against us and not to mention that the cartel is here yeah i was going to say are the cartels now crossing the border are they here now
they are here now uh they are in every major hub city in the united states from in in dallas fort worth are here we have arrested some some of them are in our jail and um
we're going to continue to try to catch them Obviously, it's a priority with us to take them down, but they're here, and
they have decision-making cartel people in Fort Worth, Texas, and in Dallas, Texas.
Can I ask you a question?
Somebody told me that the crime statistics that you always hear, that people say
there is no more crime.
Crime is not going up from illegals.
The numbers are just not there to show it.
Somebody told me that it is because When we put these things through the courts, it is easier to charge them with being an illegal and sending them back so they're not necessarily charged and go through the court system
of of what they did
you know like you know whatever it is whatever law they broke is that true
not in Tarrant County that is not true we are charging them with the offense that they have committed we've got murders in jail like I said sexual assaults in jail we've got felony DWIs in jail So we've got a whole host of people that are being prosecuted and sent to the state penitentiary.
And
after they serve their time, we will deport them at that point.
But we're going to make sure that we get the conviction and
get them in custody.
Because right now, if you're released from custody and you're turned over to highest on minor offenses, the Biden administration is going to let them go.
So tell me the role of, because there's a lot of people going out to vote for their sheriff.
What should we be asking sheriffs to know if they're
on the Constitution side or on the
rule of law FBI side.
Well, I think that that's the direct question of where are you standing as far as the Constitution and are you making sure that your oath is being upheld?
And are you going to be the peacekeeper of the county and the chief law enforcement officer of the county?
And are you going to cooperate with ICE?
Are you going to cooperate with other officials as you deal with illegal aliens coming through your jail?
I think those are important questions.
And
when it comes to
edicts and
special rules now that are going to entrap and ensnare a lot of people,
are the laws of
enforcement the same on actual congressional laws as they are on
like the SEC now with climate regulations that they've come up with, and they say, you've got to file this, this, and this, or you're going to go to jail.
That hasn't been passed by Congress.
Do you still have to enforce that as if it is a law?
We always run that by legal advisors, but on most of the cases, on those regulations, we use our discretion and say, no, we're not going to enforce that.
Thank you, but no.
And can you stop the federal government from coming in and enforcing in your county?
Sometimes that's a little bit trickier.
A lot of people believe that, but the federal government does have jurisdiction.
They can come in and do things.
But as they talk to us,
and
we're real fortunate here in the Greater Tarrant County area,
the federal agents on the ground here are good, conservative people who believe in the Constitution and they believe in the Second Amendment.
They believe that the right of due process.
So even though we hear some shouts from Washington from time to time,
there's not a lot of movement of the needle in this area.
So I've heard that from other sheriffs, and it concerns me because
it is coming from Washington, but why aren't they standing up and saying something?
There's these whistleblowers whose lives are being destroyed by the FBI, and why aren't more standing up?
I think that we will see more stand up as it goes.
And it's just like everybody else.
They're seeing what happens to the people that have been whistleblowers in the past.
And they are devastated by a lot of things.
And
they're fearful to come forward because it'll just ruin their lives.
Sheriff, thank you so much.
God bless you.
Thanks for everything you guys are doing.
Everything, I appreciate everything you're doing.
God bless, and we'll see you later.
All right.
That's Sheriff Bill Wayborne.
He's actually my sheriff from Terran County.
The guy has 10 children.
He makes me feel like an absolute slug.
He has 10 children.
Eight of them are adopted because he knows the problem with fatherless children.
He's just a really, really great guy.
All right, let me tell you about Legacy Box.
See if this fountain sounds familiar.
You're in the garage.
You're cleaning.
You're organizing.
And you don't want to be there in the first place.
So any excuse to stop what you're doing is a welcome one.
Suddenly, you open a familiar box, and there it is, your excuse just to sit down for a while.
Is this just the lazy man speaking here?
It's your excuse to sit down for a while.
It's all those old family memories, picture albums, home movies, stuff you haven't thought about in years, let alone looked at.
Well, you're going to look at it now.
That's when you notice, hey, this is really starting to decay.
It's not as pristine.
The pictures are beginning to fade with age.
No doubt the home movies are doing the same, especially if you're keeping everything in a garage.
You're looking at history that will vanish in time right before your eyes if you don't do something about it.
Well, here's that something.
Getting them into a legacy box so they can be preserved digitally.
I've done it.
I still am doing it.
We're doing it with my mom and dad.
She's found some more pictures that are just priceless.

This is the Glenn Beck Program.
You know, in the last commercial, we were talking about spring cleaning.
And does anybody do spring cleaning anymore?
I mean, really do it?
I mean, I don't know.
I don't know what that means.
In my family, with my mom, we had to take out every stick of furniture and we put it on the lawn.
Now, I think that's a sign of mental illness, quite often.
Furniture on the lawn?
Yeah.
Yeah, that does usually.
I think so.
Yeah, yeah.
So you bring all the furniture outside and clean it outside.
And we would clean, we would not only clean all of the furniture and vacuum the furniture and dust everything, but then on the inside, she would wash the walls and the floors.
And it was like moving into a brand new house every year.
We had to do it.
The results were probably pretty nice.
Oh, they were great.
But it took you how long?
It was insane.
It was insane.
And all of the people in the neighborhood would be like, there goes Mary again.
She's.
Cool.
So you know, this was not a cultural thing at the the time.
This was just your family.
Oh, yeah.
This was my mom.
Okay.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
It was like every
single summer.
Clean the house.
Time for spring cleaning.
Oh, dear God.
No.
Mom.
No, everybody will talk.
No, let's not do that.
No.
No.
And then after that, she would go into her canning phase where she would can vegetables, but she would make soup.
So we had soup.
She'd make vegetable soup and she'd make it in the brand new new clean bathtub.
Uh-huh.
She'd mix it in the bathtub.
Soup?
Yeah, in the bathtub.
In the bathtub?
Yeah.
One year, she even made more soup that wouldn't fit in the bathtub.
So she got two giant brand new garbage cans and made the vegetable soup in the garbage can.
How much soup did you eat?
We ate a lot of soup, my friend.
Bathtub soup?
We had bathtub soup.
Yeah.
This is horrible.
How is this left out of the story?
I don't understand.
is.
I don't know.
She was making soup.
Soup.
Vegetable soup.
In the bathtub.
In the bathtub.
And then you.
You have pictures of it someplace.
You ate it.
You ate that.
We ate it.
We had no choice.
Mom's soup had to be eaten.
Oh, man.
There's a lot.
This really explains a lot about you.
Like, this explains how you turned out the way that you turned out.
Yeah, I mean, you were eating bathtub soup.
Any kind of normal childhood.
Nope.
Nope.
None at all.
Wait, was this a normal?
Again, I ask, was this a normal cultural thing at the time?
No, no.
My mom would have, like, she would, you know, give soup to my aunt and my grandmother.
Did they know it was made in a bathtub?
No, I don't know.
They weren't around.
You know, they were, they lived about 90 miles away.
So, you know, away we'd go, she'd pack a lot of this soup in the can.
Did you tell them?
Did you say, hey, don't eat that?
It's out of the bathtub.
Because I thought I was young and I thought that was normal.
You know, you don't know as a kid.
Doesn't everybody make their soup in the bathtub?
No.
No.
no, you don't know that as a kid.
They leave that out as your parent.
There are some things, though, I feel like you should just be able to figure out.
And like eating food out of made in the bathtub.
Well, no, not after Mom Spring cleaned everything.
I mean, there wasn't a germ alive in the house.
There was nothing left.
I mean...
You're justifying, though.
That doesn't matter.
You can't make your soup in a bathtub.
That can't be.
I agree with you.
That's why I've been doing that.
You're not doing it now.
No, I'm not doing that now.
This isn't something you've taken on as an addition.
I'm just pressing mental illness onto my children.
Well, I can't say that.
It's a huge human being.
I'm not saying, I'm not, we're not springing
like that.
Although I wouldn't mind it.
You're going to be a
bathtub soup guy in a couple of years.
You're going to be up in Idaho.
Oh, well, you guys are all cannibals.
I've never eaten anything he gives us ever.
You're all cannibals because there's nothing.
You're all scrambling because you didn't watch the special tonight.
I prefer cannibalism to bathtub soup.

Welcome to the fusion
of entertainment
and enlightenment.
This is the Glenn Beck program.
Let me show you what happened in Taiwan yesterday.
A massive earthquake.
7.5 on the Richter scale.
If you happen to be watching the blaze.
Look at that.
I mean, it is.
It's incredible what happened.
7.5 on the Richter scale.
And tonight,
just in time for you, maybe not Taiwan, but...
How to prepare for the unthinkable.
How to prepare for whatever comes your way.
Emergency preparedness has now become cool, I guess.
Now the left is doing it, so they're going to stop making fun of preppers now because now the left is even doing it.
Everybody knows something
is not right.
And so, how do you prepare?
We'll do that tonight at 9 o'clock on my television show.
So we'll do that on GBTV tonight.
And then also,
I'm going to give you some information about
EMPs and solar winds.
What do you do if there is no energy?
We'll give you that here in just a second.
First, we talked about American financing.
There used to be a time in this country when you'd see, you know, in television movies as well as real life, men and women taking a pair of scissors to the old credit card and cutting it into pieces.
Because we understood that on the whole, credit cards were a bad idea, something to be used only in an emergency, usually.
I remember my family, my mom and dad, cutting up the credit cards.
Well, today, a lot of people just don't have any choice.
It's practically impossible in this economy to survive without racking up high interest credit card debt.
That will sink you financially as the years go by.
And if you're a homeowner and you want to work out a way to get out from underneath that high interest credit card debt, please give American Financing a call today.
They never charge any upfront or hidden fees.
That's just one of the many reasons why they have over 7,200 Google reviews and a 4.7-star rating.
They work for you, not the bank.
So call them now, 800-906-2440, 800-906-2440, or AmericanFinancing.net.

So if you missed any part of the podcast today, you've missed a lot.
We started with people from all over the world witnessing now in real time the assault from their own government.
It's not just left and right here in America.
That is not the argument.
It's really up and down.
The elites on top and the people down at the bottom, we're feeling like,
hey, none of this stuff is working out for us.
The basic needs to sustain human life, food production is being changed, water is being fought over, energy is getting flipped completely upside down.
The threat of World War III has never been closer.
And the Western governments appear to want all of this.
And they're all happening all over the world at the same time.
Tonight, I'm going to show you how unprepared the government is for the next major disaster and why you should not rely on anyone but yourself.
I'm going to show you step by step tonight how you can get your family prepared for catastrophe.
May seem daunting at first, it may seem like it's never going to happen, but we're going to go through every detail and it's actually pretty easy and it can be done inexpensively if you do it in stages.
All you have to do is just begin.
And I'll show you how tonight on the Wednesday night special at 9 p.m.
on Blaze TV, 9:30 Eastern on my YouTube channel.
It's youtube.com slash Glenn Beck.
Prepping 101, the step-by-step guide to surviving global chaos.
What are you shaking off?
You're just looking at that.
Do you think I'm listening to you about preparation after your bathtub soup story we just learned about?
I haven't made bathtub soup.
How do we know that?
You seem to be defending it.
Well, I mean, kind of yes and kind of no.
My mom used to make bathtub soup.
How
a year how far into the special tonight do you say start putting vegetables inside of bathroom areas does that when does that she didn't when does that wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute wait a minute first of all we would go pick all the beans and the corn and everything else and then we'd have to shuck them and get and snap all the beans and the peas and everything else as kids.
It was a nightmare.
Summer was a nightmare for us.
Other kids, oh, I'm so glad school's up.
Please, please, can we do math?
So we'd shuck all of it and prepare it.
And then my mom would make soup and she would mix all of the vegetables in the bathtub.
But she had cleaned the bathtub.
You are leaving out the part of the story where she was mentally ill on cleanliness, okay?
Before we started the bathtub soup, she'd do spring cleaning.
And every stick of furniture would be out on the front yard.
She'd clean the house top to bottom.
And we would have to stand there, you know, looking over the furniture and just saying, no, really, our family's not insane.
And then she would hide the really insane parts inside the house where she was making bathtub soup.
Yeah, I was going to, because my wife is also arguably mentally ill when it comes to cleaning, as she would admit.
Yes.
She's never going to make bathtub soup.
Well, no, I'm not saying it's a good idea.
Look.
I cannot be the only person who had a mother who made
lots of soup in the bathtub
you think you're gonna get no there's only two two things i can think about here when you bring up bathtub stuff like this one yeah in an emergency a hurricane is coming yes you put water in the bathtub in case you need water because the water always seems icky to me okay but it's okay that bathtub Well, my mom was a clean freak.
She scrubbed that tub.
Like, I don't know if there was enamel left on the tub after she finished cleaning.
There is no level of clean that justifies soup in the bathtub there's a drain
think about the grunt gross things that go in that oh my she would clog the you know she would cover the what hair
no we never had to bring a plumber from hair it was always like i think there's a bunch of beans uh
it might be corn don't know uh
did you ever um uh you ever cook in a crock pot yeah right and you put a crock pot they have the liners like a plastic liner you put in the crock pot so then you don't have have to clean the crock pot every time.
Well, that's a waste.
Did she do that with the tub?
Was there like some sort of plastic?
But in the garbage cans when she graduated to the garbage cans, because it was too much soup just to make in the tub.
She would make it in the tub and then two garbage cans.
But why wouldn't she just go all garbage cans then?
You have a plastic liner.
Because it was deeper.
It was harder to get down and mix the bottom.
That's why.
I'm pretty sure.
I don't know, Stu.
She was nuts.
She was nuts.
You have to be the only person in America that this is happening.
There cannot be.
Out of 350 million people, my mama cannot be the only one that made soup in the tub.
She should be the only one who made it soup.
She should.
Yeah.
I mean, you know, as I got older and realized this was made in the tub, I did start to question it.
It was very good soup, though.
It was very good.
Have I ever, I've eaten over your house several times.
Has any of the food been made in the bathtub?
In In the bathtub?
No.
Let's move on.
This is
there.
I cut myself off.
One,
there's an emergency going on
and you put water in there just in case you don't have water for a while.
Use that as an emergency.
Number two, the only other thing I can think of when it comes to this is Seinfeld when Kramer made food in the shower.
Kramer.
Right.
Yeah, that's Kramer.
Kramer's sane?
His entire character was an insane person.
He made food in the shower, and then when everyone ate it, they threw up.
That's how that story ends.
He was not only
insane, he was also, I don't think his hygiene was the greatest.
I don't think it was either.
No, I'm just saying.
Which is why you don't go into.
I'm just saying.
So let me ask you.
So, because tonight I'm going into the, you know, going into, because we all might be making soup in our bathtubs at some point.
We might.
We might.
No, I think I'd rather just die.
I think you just get.
You think so?
Yeah, I think you just call it a day.
I mean, at that point, you're like, well, why?
Well, I mean,
I mean, first of all, let's look at where she's not, it's not like a still.
She's not like making the soup, you know, and there's a fire under the bathtub.
She's just mixing the vegetables.
Why would this be better?
Because there's no heat to kill the bacteria.
It's much better.
No, no, no.
But then you can it, and so then the heat boils all of that out.
and then the heat cook it again yeah the heat of the canner
so you would can
keeps the taste but kills the bathroom bacteria yeah that smells a little like feet but that you shouldn't well all vegetable soups have the smells a little like feet it does mr vegetarian
so tonight i'm going to show you some things like for instance Are you concerned at all about an EMP or a solar?
I'm more concerned about a solar flare.
I mean, I'm mainly only concerned about that because I have to be paranoid about everything because of you.
Like, I don't even know if I would know what an EMP was if it wasn't for you.
Really?
Yes.
Maybe from some, you know, some futuristic apocalyptic sci-fi movie.
Right.
But other than that, no, I don't think that's what people think about on a daily basis, other than you.
Well, I don't think about it on a daily basis.
That's because you're prepared.
Because I'm prepared.
Right.
So I found this company in
Kansas that I'm going to tell you about tonight
that makes EMP shields.
okay and it's emp solar shields um so if you have a solar flare if there's a lightning strike etc
it stops shuts down everything so it doesn't travel through the lines and just fry everything
and now the the problem is i asked the guys who were installing it i said
So is it, I mean, is this going to work?
And they're, and they kind of just looked at me and went, yeah.
I mean,
I don't know.
It's never really been,
you know, we've never had an EMP.
So I'm like, oh, well, wait,
it's not like I can call.
If an EMP goes off and none of this crap works, it's not like I can call them and demand my money back.
Right.
You know what I mean?
Society's over.
And maybe it's just me because I was thinking, that's a great scam.
That's a great business idea.
Yeah.
Now, that's not what they're doing.
They do it for the military and everything else.
But that's a great idea.
It's a great idea.
If you can't test it.
Yeah, it's just an empty box.
We don't know.
And you know what?
If all society crumbles, we'll refund your meaningless currency right right exactly right you can even put that that can even be the language of your disclaimer so
so does that put me in the bathroom you know the the the the bathtub soup category because i put these everywhere i got them in my car i'm in the house i'm in those little solar shields yeah i'm everywhere everywhere electric blanket
i mean no i don't think it puts you in bathtub soup territory.
Yeah.
You're closing in on it.
But that one, I mean, I think is a real concern.
I mean, we've talked to experts who have wargamed this, and it is utter catastrophe.
Though I will say, I don't know that you want to be alive in a world where one of these goes off, even if you survive it.
Like, I don't think that life is...
I mean, that is like...
Don't you remember what they said to us?
Remember the...
The dirty bomb and nuclear expert told us, this is right after 9-11, we had him on, and we were living in New York.
We're like, that doesn't, I mean, we're living like, you know,
in New York City, I think, is a big target.
And the guy said, you'll be surprised how many of you survive.
And we were like, okay, good.
That's great to hear.
Yeah, no, we did the nuclear bomb blast radius.
And, you know, even if you're in like lower Manhattan, if it hits Harlem, you're going to be okay, probably.
I mean, okay, is probably not the right word.
You're going to live for a while.
You're probably going to live for a while.
Yeah.
But like,
your scenario of an EMP is much more devastating than something like that.
90% of the American population or population of any country, 90%, 70 to 90, is projected to die within the first year.
And I would be like first in line for that, I think, at that point, because I would have no preparation and I would be terrible in that scenario.
No, you'd live for a couple of days.
You'd have great soy sauce and
duck sauce.
Duck sauce.
You'd have both of those.
Yep.
You'll never get bored.
We now, because my kids love Chick-fil-A so much, we have seemingly an endless supply of Polynesian sauce.
Really?
So I think actually you might be okay for a little bit longer than before.
If you happen to live next door to somebody who has meat or any other kind of food,
you might go over and say, look, I'll trade you some meat for some sauce.
Okay, that could be the type of trade.
But I just feel like society is ugly enough at that point that the fact that you still have your electric blanket working won't necessarily be that much of a comfort.
Like
the scenario you're talking about, they make AMC series out of, right?
Like,
well, that's the problem.
You do need a tank
because if your electric blanket is working, everybody's going to come to your house.
Right.
And I just want to say, my electric blanket won't work.
I'm lying to you right now about being prepared.
And if you do try to come on my property,
good luck to you.
Yeah.
And you're saying that to the audience, not to me individually, who's obviously welcome in a situation like this.
No, I'm actually, the audience is a little more welcome than you are, quite honestly.
Quite honestly.
Yeah, actually,
I don't think I want to come because I don't know if the soup was made in the bathtub or not.
At the end of the day, I don't know.
At the point where you are showing up at my house,
you will beg me.
for bathtub soup.
I may have soup that's not made in the bathtub, and I may say, all I got is bathtub soup stew.
Beg me for it.
Beg me.
Yeah, no,
I think I would believe you.
That's the problem.
Yeah.
All right.
Let me tell you about Simply Safe.
Somewhere today, maybe in your neighborhood, there's a burglary, man of fine tastes.
He wouldn't mind helping yourself to your TV or your laptop.
Or your electric blanket.
It might be, might be.
All that sweet cash that you have hidden someplace.
Yeah, most people don't hide cash.
Are we talking about Fonnie Willis's house?
I think so.

10 seconds, station ID.
So Pete Buttajudge is out talking about, you know, electric cars, which I think is,
I think is fabulous.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Here is Pete Buttigiege.
Let's be clear that the automotive sector is moving toward EVs, and we can't pretend otherwise.
Sometimes when these debates happen, I feel like it's the early 2000s and I'm talking to some people who think that we can just have landline phones forever.
The reality is that the automotive sector is moving toward EVs and the U.S.
can either fall behind China or we can claim the lead.
President Biden wants to make sure that those EVs are made in America, especially again as more Americans choose EVs every single year than the year before.
We've got to make sure that those are made on American soil soil in places like northern Indiana, where I grew up, places like Michigan, where I live right now.
During the Trump administration, China was really able to build an advantage in the EV market.
And obviously, not because they're big environmentalists over in China, just because that's the economically smart play.
We've been working to make sure that that advantage comes back onto American soil.
Yeah, by destroying the one company who's had success in the market.
Yeah.
By freezing them out every by the way, their sales are down.
Their sales are down.
I mean, we are in a really scary period if you happen to be an EV company.
Oh, yeah.
Not only is you.
Well, not really, because you know the government will bail you out.
Well, do you?
We have an election in November that says maybe not,
right?
If Donald Trump wins, what happens to these companies?
The only reason they exist is because the government keeps throwing
billions and billions and billions of dollars at it.
Forcing.
And forcing people.
Forcing people.
You know,
they have these tax credits.
And this is part of the Inflation Reduction Act.
And there's been versions of these for a long time, but $7,500 if you're going to buy an electric car.
It's been around for a long time.
They've extended that
seemingly.
Also, if you lease a car as well.
But also, every component that goes into an electric car qualifies you for another tax giveaway.
And this is what they call tax cuts,
which is not really what it is, really.
It's a giveaway.
You just have to buy a $100,000 car for a tax cut.
But you also, if you are a company that doesn't have a lot of success right now, you say, you know what, let's just start making electric car parts because we know they're guaranteed to get us money.
Every time we produce one, we get a credit from the government, including if you happen to be a Chinese company who's making them in China, we're sending credits to China, to Chinese companies.
China.
China.
China.
Now, again,
all of these giveaways have led to an industry that has had one success, which is Tesla, which is hurting right now.
The stock price is down something like 28%.
We have the four startups, I think we've been over this before, are down in stock price between 91 and 99%.
But only 99%.
Right.
Only 99.
That last percent still seems to be hanging around.
Right.
We're in that sort of environment.
Ford,
how many different companies we've talked about over the past few years?
Oh, are like.
Ford can't make trucks.
They're either abandoning them completely or they are cutting back, moving their deadlines back.
back.
The average EV stays on a lot twice as long, twice as long as the average gas station.
You know one of the reasons why?
We spend all these billions of dollars.
You know,
we're going to put charging stations all over the country.
Yeah.
We're going to do that.
You know how many we've done?
Seven.
Not 700, not 70.
7,000?
Not 7,000.
7 million.
Seven.
Just seven.
Just seven charging stations.
Well, that sure it reduced inflation as part of the inflation reduction act.
Yeah, it sure did.
Pain is a little long at those seven recharging stations.

Welcome to the Glenn Vec program.
Apparently, Stu, you're wrong.
There are other people that make food
food in their bathtub.
Let's go to Jason.
Hi, Jason.
Glenn, what a pleasure.
Thank you.
Thank you.
And I guess we have a lot in common, I guess.
My mom made soup in the bathtub.
Is that your experience?
And I have a story to one-up, yes.
Oh, no.
Oh, no.
Oh, that's not one-up.
You didn't need to heat a human being out of the bathtub, did you?
Well,
it's not me.
I work with a guy that used to do electrical home inspections,
and
he went into an apartment complex
and they were cooking a pig in the bathtub.
No, wait, was it like a Hawaiian bake thing, kind of thing?
Well, they it was of course a porcelain tub
and they put charcoal in the bottom, lit that on fire, had the pig wrapped in aluminum foil, and that's how they would cook it.
And, you know, him being inspections, he had to enter every room of the building.
So he'd come upon that,
and that's his story that he tells.
And how did they get rid of the smoke?
I
don't know that they did.
Oh, okay.
They did.
They got rid of it in their lungs.
Right, yeah.
Right.
But very good death.
It was.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He said it was quite an experience.
And
that's his.
You know what?
I think that's actually better.
I think so, too.
I think it's more defensible.
I think it's more defensible.
Because look, the pig is
touching
the porcelain.
And you're burning it all out.
You know what I mean?
You're burning all the germs out.
Yeah, I mean, I don't think it's a good, especially, good God, in an apartment complex.
Yeah, no, that's very dangerous.
Very dangerous.
But I don't think it would be as gross to eat as the soup.
The soup is going to mix with the porcelain.
I mean, I remember as a kid realizing, wait a minute, this was made in a bathtub.
And you just powered through it.
Yeah, you just powered through it.
It was delicious.
It was delicious.
I have to give my mom that.
Let me go to John in California.
Hello, John.
Hey, how are you guys?
Good.
How are you?
Very good.
Thank you.
I'm sorry to see Stu on stage.
I mean, you know, I guess you could hope for the best.
Anyway.
All right, go ahead.
Uh-huh.
The
bathtub story
rang so true.
I was adopted.
My adoptive parents were from Sicily.
And the first and most
memorable thing I had from my history was that we would always can
and we would make bathtub soup.
Yes.
And it was just like the standard.
We had one bathroom and the bathroom was always full of soup.
It was crazy.
What?
Okay, well, that's a little bit.
It shouldn't have been always full of soup.
I mean,
you know what I'm saying?
I think maybe once a year is good, but.
Is it?
Is it good?
The once-a-year soup in the bathtub?
I am lying to myself right now, so I don't need therapy.
That's what's happening.
Do you feel like your inside should be cleaned out right now?
Is there some sort of cleansing?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
Definitely.
Okay, well, thank you for that.
Can we go back to Pete Buddhajudge here?
This is what he said yesterday.
Let's be clear that the automotive sector is moving toward EVs, and we can't pretend otherwise.
Sometimes, when these debates happen, I feel like it's the early 2000s, and I'm talking to some people who think that we can just have landline phones forever.
The reality is that the automotive sector is moving toward EVs, and the U.S.
can either fall behind China or we can claim the lead.
President Biden wants to make sure that I'm fascinated by this.
First of all, you can have landlines forever.
You can.
We still have them.
But
why have people gone away from that?
What they've done is choose
something else.
I was just going to say, he says the automotive sector is moving away from combustion engines.
No, they're not.
No, they're not.
They're not.
The people are not.
And it's the government pushing them into that direction.
And the people are saying, I don't want that.
On every side.
Right.
It's not like they were pushing cell phones and everybody's like, oh, I got to, I mean, it's just getting crazy to have a cell phone.
I don't really have a choice soon.
It's not like even incandescent light bulbs.
Right.
You know,
we went to the cellular service because everybody started having it and it was, but still people have,
don't they?
What?
Phones in their house?
Yeah, you have phones.
I have a landline.
Yeah, I do.
I mean, you know, I have young kids and they don't have cell phones.
So when, you know, don't ever let them have them.
Believe me, this is, yes, I'm with you on that 100%.
By the way, I think we're going to have Jonathan Haidt on, who has a new book out about all of the problems that are going on in our society and traces many of them to cell phones for kids.
It's specific features like the self-facing camera, for example.
Yeah, crazy.
Really bad.
But I was interested in that when he said the landline thing, because it does feel like one of those technologies that hung around longer than you thought it would.
Like, you know, this is like this with the Netflix and DVDs.
And everyone's like, oh, gosh, do you remember when Netflix used to sell DVDs?
And then you look at it and be like, wait a minute, they still do and still, they still have 10 million customers?
Like, how is this possible?
That lasted for a long time.
So back in 2003,
96% of people had landlines.
2003.
96%.
Yeah.
And then that started decreasing.
The landline only people started basically going away.
So in 2000, let's see, Barack Obama gets
elected in December 2008.
I was like, wait a minute, I missed that.
We should have covered that story.
There was, let's say, 65% of people had landlines and wireless, and another 15% had landline-only.
So about still 80%
when Barack Obama gets elected had the landline only.
The cell phone really didn't.
When did the smartphone come out?
When did Apple come out?
2008, 2010?
2009 was the first I've seen.
So 2010, 11, 12, 12.
That's when it really starts to hit.
And it really does start going, people going wireless only.
Wireless only becomes the top of category, though, after 2014.
So, really, beginning of 2015, wireless only becomes the top 10.
People have a cell phone now.
So not a cell phone, but wireless only is right now 73%.
Wow.
25% are landline and wireless.
You have 1.3% that are landline only.
And then 0.6% are phoneless.
Wow.
Which is, what is that life like?
You're making soup in the tub.
You're making soup in the tub, and you're sending exploding letters to scientists around the world.
No, I think that would be a great, that would be a great life.
You think?
Phoneless?
Yeah, I do.
Yeah.
Well, maybe not entirely.
There's a lot of negatives, I think, that go along with phoneless.
Like landline, at least you can get in touch with people if you want to.
Yeah, but really do you need to?
Well, probably.
Anybody that you're like, I really want to talk to them if they call.
Help.
My son is choking on the bathtub.
That would be like,
that was my only hesitation.
I was like,
you know, 911, but you're probably not living near.
You don't have a phone.
You're probably.
Not living near enough for 911 to make yourself.
You're living in
some sort of cabin.
Probably my house.
In in the woods.
My house in the mountains, probably, yeah.
And you're writing letters
and manifestos to people.
That's what's happening.
Or you're just, you just give it up.
Like, you're just like, you know what?
Society sucks, and I'm going to be free of it.
And there's something appealing to that.
You know what happens?
If you don't have a phone that works, because we don't have a phone.
We don't have phone lines.
You don't have a land line?
No.
And we don't have a cell phone.
Wait, so you're on the 0.6 of phones.
Up at the ranch, yeah.
Yeah, up at the ranch.
We don't.
don't phone less phone less there's no way for anyone to get in touch i do not believe you have if you have apple
uh
what is it you know some sort of internet we have wireless so we don't have cell phone service but we do have wireless and somehow or another if you say you're just going up here going through yeah yeah going through the wireless uh okay that's a new that was a news development but when you but when you don't have a phone you end up thinking things like
we should have a fire truck
like the house,
yeah,
because we were thinking what happens.
We're up in the mountains, the house catches fire, you don't have a fire truck, you don't have anything.
What do I mean?
What do you do?
There's a you know, a wildfire, the trees and everything starts to burn, right?
Which happens, which happens, you know.
What do you do?
What are you going to do?
Because your house will be gone.
I think you should go ahead and fight it.
Just you by yourself with your fists.
Just go for it.
Run right there.
No water.
Just fight it with a water.
You're made of water.
Like you're 70% water.
Yeah.
I am.
Give it a shot.
Let me ask you this.
I know you're doing some renovations on your home up there.
Have you thought about putting a bathtub in your kitchen?
No, we already have one.
Why would we need two?
Back in just a second.
Every Thursday in Israel, the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews delivers 10 bomb shelters.
So tomorrow,
it's the first delivery.
They're putting them in places like bus stops.
Now, when I think bus stops, I think of, you know, mass transit.
That's not...
These bus stops are where the bus stops so they can get on the bus to go to school.
If there is a rocket attack, these shelters provide a safe place for the children and others to go.
Vitally important, especially now in the north where the fight continues against Hezbollah.
And that is going to be the next real battleground, I think.
The shelters are $15,000 each.
They need 170 of them.
That works out to be $2.5 million, but somebody has made a very generous donation, and they will match dollar for dollar anything that we give.
So we're getting them at half price, $7,000.
Through God's grace, I have seen this audience do remarkable things and helping the Jewish people, helping God's chosen people at this time, standing with them, I think brings favor on us.
It's the right thing to do, but it is also a way for us to be in line with the Lord.
Let's try to buy some of these shelters, can we?
Any donation will help the Jews in this time of sorrow and struggle and suffering.
They're grateful for it.
If you're one of the sponsors of one of these shelters,
please, please, if you can do it, let's change the world together again.

If you look at what is happening, especially in California, where people are now, you know, being paid paid $20, $25
an hour if you work at a fast food restaurant.
Listen to the price.
A double whopper meal
last Friday was $15.09.
Holy crap.
One meal, $15.
Whopper, fries, and a drink.
Okay.
$15.09.
On Monday, it was $16.89.
$16.89 for Burger King King value meal?
Yeah.
Okay, you ready for this?
The big fish meal at Burger King went from $7.49 on Friday
to Monday being $11.49.
A $4 increase in one weekend?
A $4 increase in one weekend.
In one weekend.
I mean,
it's not good.
It's not good.
How are people going to be able to afford
anything, especially if you do, you know, if you you do Uber Eats,
I mean, it's getting so expensive now.
And think of that.
If people stop ordering Uber Eats, how many Uber drivers are going to stop making money?
It just makes, it's just this long chain of events.
Yeah, but inflation is coming down, Glenn.
We've been hearing this from the administration over and over and over and over again.
Well, you know, and people always miss this, you know, at least in the media, but like, just because the rate of inflation has come down does not mean your prices come down.
And it is going to go up again.
The inflation rate.
How can it not with the way we're spending?
It will.
It will.
If you happen to be one of these people, by the way, who bought a house between, let's say, 2010 and 2021,
before the inflation kicked in, and you have a mortgage and it's like 3%,
guard it with your life.
Remember what an asset this is.
You can go, you can put money in a bank account and earn five or six percent right now, and it's probably going to only go up from here.
Like, I keep hearing people like, oh, we're going to move.
It's like, you move at gunpoint when you have a 3% mortgage in this environment.
It is an asset for you.
And don't pay a cent more than the minimum payment.
And just put the money in the bank and earn 5% or 6% in the bank.
because you can do that right now.
You're going to be earning more
than your interest rate.
You're going to be paying to pay it off.
It's going to cost you to pay it off.
And if you switch out of that and you go to a new home where you're getting the 7% or 8% mortgage rate, you're going to get a worse home
for the same amount of money or more.
That's one of those things that they don't factor in.
I heard this
economic report talking about why is it that there's this quote-unquote disconnect from all these amazing financial numbers we're seeing and people's perception of them.
Why is there such a disconnect between those two things?
Now, part of it is, I don't know, $16 whoppers, it's partially that, but it's also not included in any of those calculations
are the interest rates.
So the fact if you're not only has the price of your home gone up when you're trying to buy a new home, but then the cost of buying that home has gone up.
So now you're paying more and more and more and more and every month.
And I don't know, it's going to be an interesting thing because I think what the Biden administration is depending on is that people bought that house, they got stung by that mortgage price in 2022,
and now they're used to it.
Now by 2024, maybe they're okay with spending all of that money.
I got to tell you,
it's only going to get worse with the way that we're spending.
You need to prepare for tough times.
Tonight at 9 p.m.
